|
Come all without, come all within
|
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
|
Come all without, come all within
|
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
|
|
Everybody's building ships and boats
|
Some are building monuments, others are jotting down notes
|
Everybody's in despair, every girl and boy
|
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
|
Everybody's gonna jump for joy
|
|
Come all without, come all within
|
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
|
|
I like to go just like the rest, I like my sugar sweet
|
But jumping queues and makin' haste, just ain't my cup of meat
|
Everyone's beneath the trees, feedin' pigeons on a limb
|
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
|
All the pigeons gonna run to him
|
|
Come all without, come all within
|
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
|
Come all without, come all within
|
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
|
|
Let me do what I wanna do, I can't decide 'em all
|
Just tell me where to put 'em and I'll tell you who to call
|
Nobody can get no sleep, there's someone on everyone's toes
|
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
|
Everybody's gonna wanna doze
|
|
Come all without, come all within
|
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
|
Come all without, come all within
|
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
|
Come all without, come all within
|
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
|
Come all without, come all within
|
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
